Yes — really.
Many kitchen scissors are designed so that:
The lower tooth (or first bump) fits snugly under the cap of a glass bottle (like beer, soda, or kombucha).
When you pivot the scissor handle upward, it lifts the cap off cleanly.
🔧 How to use it:
Slide the first tooth under the bottle cap.
Rest the cap’s edge on the ridge.
Lift the scissor handle up — pop!
✅ Works best on standard twist-off caps.
2. ✅ Jar Lid Gripper / Nut Cracker (On Some Models)
Some brands extend this feature further:
The full serrated edge acts as a non-slip grip for stubborn jar lids
Or doubles as a nut cracker — place a walnut or pecan between the teeth and press down gently
📌 Not all scissors have this function — but many high-quality ones do.
💡 Pro Tip: Check your brand’s instructions — some even label it as a “multi-tool.”
